Recently, our commercial efforts have received a significant push with two key financial events. We are excited to report our first revenues which were generated by Parkway Clinical laboratories, our recently acquired CLIA-certified lab in Pennsylvania. The second financial event is the repurchase of $7.4 million worth of Rosetta Genomics-held Auction Rate Securities by Credit Suisse in the fourth quarter.
In addition to the commercial achievements we have made during this past quarter, we have made significant R&D progress. We have recently launched "Rosetta Green" a microRNA-based plant biotechnology project which will focus on the development of a wide range of plant-based applications using microRNAs. This project has been well received by the industry, and we look forward to its growth and expansion.
This has been an overall excellent quarter for us, and we expect the progress we have made will continue throughout the remainder of the year."
